Hi kicad-lib-commiters,

My name is Johannes Spanier (aka dilib) I am 37, from Germany and I recently joined the kicad-lib-commiters team. I am pretty new to KiCAD and to EDA at all, but I am an enthusiastic hobbyist in electronics. KiCAD is the first (!) EDA tool I ever used and so far I am quite pleased. Albeit being new to KiCAD, I already get a feeling that the library is quite good. I hear it is not as extensive as Eagle but definitely on a good way. As advanced hobbyist I have erverything that I need. I already pushed a revision to the lib to include the subdirectories in the build process, so that the symbols from dl1eic are accessible in a build without having to download the lib from launchpad.

I noticed there is low activity on this mailinglist, but I still want to put my question here, since it is really only focused on the library and I also want to keep the list alive.

Enough introducing myself, now to my question:
What is the reason for the library/symbols subdirectory and the .sym files therein? I can find no reference in KiCAD code, config or library files to this data. If there really should be no reference to this data, I propose to delete this directory to start cleanup.

Regards
dilib
